LEG3ND ELITE + PRO HD MEN SET

This Aqua Lung set pairs the Leg3nd Elite and its matching Leg3nd Octopus with the wrap-around Pro HD jacket in the men’s cut, and adds the Combo 2K console. The Leg3nd Elite is the top regulator Aqua Lung builds, and the octopus is its equal on breathing effort.

Both Leg3nd Elite stages are over-balanced and work of breathing is 0.7 j/L. The DIN 300 bar first stage weighs 747 g and carries two 7/16 inch UNF high-pressure ports and four 3/8 inch UNF medium-pressure ports. Deep De-Ice ribs, a permanent dry chamber and an Auto Closure Device cover cold water and storage. The octopus breathes to the same 0.7 j/L on a yellow hose. The Pro HD is cut from ResisteK against abrasion and fading, integrates its lead through the patented SureLock II release, and sets cylinder height on a positioning strap. The Combo 2K console adds a 50 mm pressure gauge and an in-line depth gauge on one 80 cm hose, weighing 389 g.

The result is independent micro-adjustment of Venturi and inhalation effort, set by the diver rather than accepted as delivered, on a buoyancy compensator sized to the diver rather than to shop stock.

Sizing follows the Pro HD Men, XS to XL, roughly 100 g a step; the rest is one size. Cylinder, computer, weights and exposure protection are separate. At R41,584 the set saves R10,396.01 on the parts bought singly.
